The point is Cotto beat undefeated PRIME fighters who then became Champions and made a name for themselves. All of those Floyd wins came against guys on their last legs.
From what I saw, Hernadez was in his peak when his career was cut short.

I wasn't saying Cotto ducked those guys I listed a few pages back, but there were still better fights out there at those weights than Pinto, Torres, Foreman, etc.

You can not duck anyone and still have a weak résumé.
Cotto doesn't have a "weak" resume per we but its not too good.
The fact he ducked no one doesn't magically make it amazing.

This is not a Cotto thread. This is a thread to justified other boxer resume.
Going by the names, you can shoot all of Cotto's victories. Going by the time and the position those guys were rank, you need to qualify as what they are. Aside from Hatton, who he missed in 140 that matter? Aside from PWill, who he didnt fight that matter? While this guy was fighting Margarito, Quintana and Clottey (all top 147 when he fought them) they were other guys on vacation.
He is not ATG, he is going to the HoF based on popularity but that is not discredit to him. Losing to the two best fighters of this generation and two other bigger and stronger fighters, it is prove enough that he was more than a good fighter in his generation. Even if you dont like to admit it.

You put it perfect.....Cotto didn't duck anyone but it doesn't stop his resume from being weak.
Not to mention Floyd only 21 taking a MAJOR step up, having only been in the pro game for 2 years at that point, maybe 3.
